AMD CPUs Dominate Amazon Top Sellers List in US, UK and Germany
AMD's relentless CPU design and release cadence have been totally overturning the consumer mindset regarding whose CPU manufacturer they should choose to populate their builds, and it shows in the top sellers for numerous retailers. Amazon US, for example, lists only two Intel CPUs in the top ten of its CPU sales, with the 6-core/6-thread Core i5-9600K in fourth position, and the 8-core/16-thread Core i9-9900K in sixth. AMD's Ryzen 7 2700X is the top seller (not at all strange, considering the ludicrously low Black Friday sale price of $159, with the Ryzen 5 2600 in second place and the Ryzen 5 3600 in third.
In the UK, Amazon's top sellers in the CPU department count with 10 AMD entries against three from Intel, with the three top spots being taken by AMD's Ryzen 5 3600, Ryzen 7 3700X, and finally the Intel i7 9700K. Change your country to Germany, and you'll find the same distribution of top sellers, with Intel claiming only three CPUs in the top ten, but managing to snag the top seller position with the i7-9700K CPU. AMD has been increasing its market share in the CPU space for some reason, and we all know what it is - incredible performance/price and price/core ratios have given the blue team something to think about. What about you? Are you thinking of buying a new CPU this Black Friday?

Image Intel being the budget friendly alternative where you get more for your money. :D
primeabgb (Mumbai)
mdcomputers (Kolkata)
vedantcomputers (Kolkata)
theitdepot (Chennai)
they have the latest and greatest within few weeks of launch, i personally prefer Vedantcomputers due to no gateway payment charges (2%) when paying by card.
